I believe that Fabral, one of our member companies, produces this. Classic Metal Roofing and ATAS have other profiles in aluminum. Todd Miller

I checked out both of the Web sites you listed and they only make mention to Galvanized Steel, nothing in aluminum. Also the atas company doesn't have a true 5v crimp panel avaiable. Any other ideas on the aluminum 5vr, or a link to a site that has the techincal data and Fl approvals??

I really am certain that Fabral does offer 5V in aluminum. You may need to contact them direct to get the info you need though. If they are not offering it, then they have discontinued it very recently. You could also contact McElroy Metals. All that said, through-fastened corrugated roofing can be problematic in aluminum due to aluminum expansion and contraction and the resulting fatigue on fasteners. That is why most aluminum roofing products have concealed clip fasteners. Todd Miller
